Thank goodness surgery is just a few days away! I have been so nauseaus lately and the thought of more protein shakes makes me sick to my stomach! I'm done with Atkins Advantage. I ran out today and can't stand to have another one. I've been using my body fortress powder mixed with water, but I'm sick of it too.

Is anyone else that's on the liquid diet having trouble like this? I can't wait until Sunday so I can have some jello and broth!!!!

Hi Brandy, Not too much longer then we'll be on clear liquids.   YIPPEEE!!!  lol   The protein shakes aren't making me sick yet, but I could defenitly do without them.  They're not as good as they were at first.  I REALLY liked them before we started this.  Look at your weight loss!!!!!!!!!  Holy Cow!!  19 lbs  that is so good.  I've lost 9 so far.  Are you still able to exercise ?  I have still been walking, but I am soooo stinkin tierd.   Good luck & stay strong sister, we only have a few days left.   (((HUGS))) Angy

I don't think we would be complaining about it if we could have something else besides the freaking shakes and broth.  It's just getting old, same thing day after day after day after day!!!  It will be MUCH better after we are several weeks out & able to add a little variety to our life. ~Angy

Yes, protein shakes and vitamins are always going to be a necessity.. I had the same problem you do, but i finally found a shake i really like and i have been using it for 4 months now and actually don't dread drinking it :)  That should tell you something.  For me, it is MATRIX 5.0..  Love the cookies and cream.  I never get tired of it like i did so many others.  Bariatric eating runs this one sale a lot for 39.99 ... for 5 lbs of it, that is 70 + shakes.. so very affordable compared to the others also..  you might want to give it a try, they also sell chocolate, vanilla and an orange vanilla dreamsicle one..  my fave is the cookies and cream.. it is light, thin, not thick and easy to drink right down.. I think for me a factor was the thickness.. and it tastes YUMMY, that never hurts :
good luck

I know it is hard to do but not much longer and then just think what you have to look forward too. lol the food intake is always going to be hard  it is hard to know what to eat and when to eat and how much and how long do we wait till you drink and when to take which vits. It for sure isnt the easy way out. welcome to our world. we will be waiting for you at the losers bench ...but you know even with all the whats, wheres and whens it is still the best thing that has ever happened to me ...my health is better and i have lost all the fat so im happy and you will be too. good luch girls. we are all praying and pulling for you.

Thanks Jan, I am trying to get on some sort of a schedule taking my vitamins & regular meds & stuff.  I always forget to take my evening meds, I'm working on that one.  lol  I can't wait to be on the other side.  I know it'll be hard, but a good thing at the same time.  Have you girls started cleaning off that space for us yet?  It's gonna be a BIG spot to clear.   lol   Thanks for the prayers, it makes it all more comforting.     (((HUGS))) Angy
